International ClassH02K033/00AbstractA linear oscillator includes a reciprocating moving part, a case to contain the moving part, and an amplitude control spindle moveably supported in the case. The moving part and the amplitude control spindle reciprocate at a frequency approximately equal to the resonance frequency of the linear oscillator.Field of SearchWith centering or aligning or guiding meansWith plunger rotation preventing means (e.g., means to prevent undesired rotation of the plunger during movement) With relatively movable conductors (e.g., dynamometer) With armature-locking means With vibrating reed or spring bar-type armature With plural armatures selectively retarded With plural armatures Linear Reciprocating With other elements Motion-converting mechanism Solenoid and core type Field or excitation windings or structure Combined permanent and electromagnet | |
